Instant Trainer Leash Review

Did you know that over 39% of the US has at least one dog in their household? That’s over 78 million dogs!

We have our own beloved Pug dog, named Abby.

She’s very much a part of the family; she even travels with us when we visit out of state family. Abby’s pretty small, she’s about 16 pounds, but when we take her for a walk, she can still pull on the leash. She’s not big enough to do much, but when I’m pushing a stroller and keeping an eye on my 2 year old walking next to me, 5 year old on her scooter, and 9 year old riding his bike up ahead, sometimes it’s more than I want to deal with.

Many dogs pull too hard on their leash. We may get so used to it that we hardly realize it. Or maybe you don’t take your dog for walks as often as you’d like because it’s frustrating.

The Instant Trainer Leash can change that. With gentle but firm resistance, it works to discourage dogs both big and small, from pulling. The leash attaches to any collar and comes in two sizes for dogs under 30 pounds and over 30 pounds. This veterinarian and dog trainer approved leash can change any dog into an easy walker. It’s also great for walking multiple dogs.

We tried the leash out with Abby a couple days ago. It was simple to attach the leash to her collar, adjust the ring so it was in the middle of her back, and then loop the leash under her midsection and then through the ring.

Abby wasn’t sure what to think about the leash being wrapped around her midsection. At first, she tried walking backwards, but she quickly adjusted. Once we started walking, Abby began trying to walk ahead of me and pull as usual, but I quickly and gently tugged on the leash. Abby looked at me a bit puzzled but then slowed down and began walking next to me. I wouldn’t call the leash magic as Abby did still pull a little from time to time, but overall, she was much improved. And I found myself enjoying the walk with the kids instead of being frustrated that my little dog was yanking on my arm.

I think this is a great alternative to many other training methods. The leash is simple, it’s gentle, and it really does work. I’m so glad I could share this Instant Trainer Leash review with you. If you have a dog who pulls, check it out!

I have 2 black labs Harley and Lady they are both 3. We got Harley first and he was a real playful little puppy and wanted us to play with him all the time. So we decided to get another Black Lab, hence Lady and she is 3 months younger. She is laid back but very protective of me and Harley is still very active, on the move all the time. I would love one of these leases as they both pull when we walk.

I’m glad to hear my pug isn’t the only one! Well not that your pug doesn’t walk well, but I’ve wondered what was wrong with me that my little dog was pulling! Lol. This leash has made a big difference. If you don’t win (good luck!) I definitely recommend checking it out.

We have 5 dogs:
Napoleon is a Pekinese Dauschund mix, Tater is a lab mix (looks like a Rhodesian Ridgeback), Sherman is a hound (with freckles), Butterball is a bully mix, and our “puppy” is Jack – an 80 lb bloodhound terror that my husband adores!

I have 2 dogs, Roxy a beagle jack Russell mix (she is my main puller) and Molly a beagle corgi mix she only pulls if she sees a squirrel, bunny or something. They both love walks and I would love to try the insta trainer with them

Kai, our belguim malinois, is a retired drug sniffing dog. She is a very smart dog, who sometimes has had a bit of a problem transitioning into family life. Like the time she completely chewed my passenger side car seat down to the metal and another time chewed the carpeting up on the drivers side floor. I no longer leave her in the car by herself. Other than that she is a very good dog.

My family and I are getting a dog that my sister is taking care by getting rid of heart worms. His name is Jackson and he is blonde haired stray. We are just waiting for him to be better (2 more months).

we have 2 large pit bill mixes, who are both big giant babies LOL. The problem with Athena (my pitt/boxer mix) is that she always pulls against her leash when we walk her, effectively chocking herself. We have to keep stoping for her to catch her breathe, or full out run everytime we leave the hosue. I’d love to try this leash!

We have two dogs, mine is a Cocker Spaniel named Princess Sophie, well she thinks she is a princess anyway. Our other dog is a Black Lab and Newfoundland mix and there is quite a size difference and what cracks me up is that people think that Sophie is Shadow’s pup. I find this quite amazing because if you look a Shadow, he is a “HE!” lol

I have a 2 year old husky/whippet mix, who is honestly the most lovable, sweet, and gently dog, HOWEVER he also might win the prize for the worst walker ever, I cannot walk him nor do I want to because he is such an embarrassment and he would rip my shoulder out of its socket… My husband will only walk him after dark so no one sees lol, I’d really love to try this leash… We’ve tried obedience classes, the gently leader, choke collars, etc nothing has helped us, maybe this will!

My daughter has 3 dogs so I call them my 4 legged grandkids. LOL!! I don’t have to change diapers.woo hoo! I love them and I know one of them really needs this leash. She has one cat who is so cute. Thanks for the giveaway!

We have 6 dogs….1 jack russel terrier (Julie age 13), 1 Labrador (Bella age 2), 1 Fox Hound (Copper age unknown–rescued dog), and 3 of the puppies created by Bella and Copper so we call them Foxadors! (Tipper, Kate, and Pippa—all 6 weeks old)

We have 12 other of their puppies too at the moment, but hopefully they will all go to their new homes shortly!!

First off I would like to say terrific blog! I had a quick question
that I’d like to ask if you don’t mind. I was curious to know how
you center yourself and clear your head prior to writing.
I’ve had trouble clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts out. I do take pleasure in writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints? Thanks!
